Comments Thread For: WBC Suspends Dillian Whyte's Position as Interim-Champ, Mandatory

[Alan Smithee]

Yep, the real problem and subterfuge is that Team hearn/BBBofC/Whyte wasn't forthcoming to Team Rivas and the WBC. How can any fighter, promoter, or sanctioning body trust these guys to be professionals, and do the right thing going forward?

If this turns out as bad as it looks I wouldn't deal with these dudes. No morals, no ethics, no sense of professional propriety. They would have zero trust levels as professional bocing officials ...

Switched the agreed upon gloves? And the management Team went along with it? With no notice?

Next would be not honoring financial commitments and other agreements. Where there's smoke ...

The glove issue was weird and what was the explanation? If it was a comfort issue they surely would have known in advance of the fighter meeting. They brought two approved pairs and then used a different pair? Why?

Whyte’s camp claims that his gloves were used by some other fighter on the undercard and his second approved pair went missing.

Because apparently that’s normal for a heavyweight title fight.

Fight was allowed to proceed because of bbboc policy of innocent until all samples are tested and investigation is over if he would of been caught with at least two weeks to go before fight instead of 3 days could of got results back from b sample and fight would of been canceled

That makes sense except that they didn't notify Rivas team. That makes it very suspect. They should notify the rival team no matter what. They should get a chance to decide if they want to risk the fight, in case the "B" is also bad. Otherwise the BBBoC is NOT trying to protect fighters.

In this case it looks like they were protecting the 'show' (the main card). It would have been a serious financial disaster had Rivas pulled out with 3 days to go.

But he should have had that opportunity, and the BBBoC should be in the business of protecting fighters FIRST, not cards.

In other words, Whyte is fcuked, Wilder gets carte blanche opponents of his choosing from now on, AJ is more than likely losing at the end of the year and Hearn is going to implode...

[Superbee]

Oopsy... Looks like the vise is tightening around Whyte...


They should also make the actual fight a no contest until they know what's going on...

I love how it’s the WBC’s fault that Whyte got busted for using PEDs.

These fan-girls are beyond any rational thinking. LoL!

Agreed. Somehow "those" didn't go missing or get used when all else did. Beyond su****ious .... lands in convenient. Scandalous. Even worse if Matchroom tries to soft-pedal it. They should be as outraged as anyone. They can't secure a lockerroom? Again, for a title fight.

It's over!

Beyonce is one lucky SOB. All his tough mandatories failed drug tests. It's weird, lol.

This guy must be on African voodoo or some shi..tt. I heard he's into that voodoo shi...tt, loool.

But still no pity for Dillian Whyte.

Lucky cause he don't haveta fight some roided up dude? LoL. I see. You really don't care about PEDS in the sport. You'll take a win at any cost.

I was totally behind Big Baby. And felt like a sucker when he got exposed. If it takes that to beat the other guy, you ARE the loser. May as well fight someone on angel dust. Out of their mind, don't feel pain, boundless energy right up until the heart stops ... dangerous for all involved.

PEDS shouldn't be a partisan excuse/jokeline

That's a pathetic excuse about the cheap roids somehow being why hes wrongfully accused. Remember in the uk it has become infinitely more difficult to acquire high quality peds due to all the scandals such as with Froome & team sky.(since drs used to prescribe the quality roids to athletes) Therefore its not at all difficult to deduce that Whyte took dbol because he didn't have access to alternatives,or merely because he figured hed flush it out his system or that he had bad advice on how fast it clears out of his system. Bottom line is either he was somehow dosed against his will(basically impossible)or he willingly took roids & figured hed get away because Vada had already tested him.

Where does he say anything about being wrongly accused? He's just saying he didn't pop dirty by accident

[saintpat]

Whytes team knew this might happen. It's why they told him not to cut his hair.

Dude gonna show up to his appeal looking like Marvin Hagler now.
